Admin Log in Does not work and No Theme After Install

    I have wordpress installed on my Godaddy account in a directory https://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks and I have the domain https://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com forwarded to that directory
    If you go to either of the above you will see that wordpress content will display but not in the typical wordress theme. Also if you try to log in as an admin by typing /wp-admin at the end of the url the admin log in page is not the typical admin page and there is no WordPress logo. If I try to log in as an admin it will not accept my username and password even though I am absolutely sure they are correct. I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times and always end up with the same result. It may help if I explain the history of what I did when this first started happening. I originally had wordpress installed in keithscarr.com/wptest and I had the anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com domain forwarded to it. When I did a google search my domain name did not display but keithscarr.com/wptest did which I did not want. So I tried to fix that. I logged in as an admin and clicked on Settings and changed 2 fields: “WordPress address (URL)” and “Blog address (URL)” and I replaced https://keithscarr.com/wptest with https://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com
    Then I saved my change. I think that was a BIG mistake. After I got out of admin I lost my theme and I tried to go back to admin and the sign on page changed (to what you see now without the wordpress logo) and it did not accept my password. I tried to uninstall wordpress and reinstall, no good. I tried to add my domain (anxietyandpanicattackshelp.com) to my Godaddy hosting account rather than forwad it from cheapcheapdomainnames.com where I bought it which is what I did the first time) and create a new subdirectory keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks then install wordpress from Godaddy into that domain. Still no good – no theme, can’t log in as admin even though I know the correct username and password. If I click to e-mail me a new password nothing ever comes. Please help, I have been trying to fix this for a week and I have exhasted all my options.

  • OK. Get your blog back to something that works first, then worry about the domain change/redirect. Backup everything– files and database.

    Looks to me like you’ve got WP files here https://keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks and also at https://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com so for each domain, follow this link and set your home and siteurl to the appropriate value for that domain. Hopefully that will get you a functional site again– two sites actually.

    Looks like you’ve also got some kind of frameset based domain masking going on, judging by the fact that your stylesheet and a number of other files look like this:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "https://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>

<head>
  <title>Anxiety and Panic Attack Help </title>
  <META name="description" content="Everything You Need to Know About Anxiety Attacks and Panic Attacks. amny resources to choose from with helpful articles."><META name="keywords" content="anxiety, panic, anxiety attacks, panic attacks, panic disorder, anxiety disorder">

<frameset rows="100%,*" border="0">
  <frame src="https://keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks/wp-content/themes/default/style.css" frameborder="0" />
  <frame frameborder="0" noresize />
</frameset>

    You’ll need to undo that too.

    Once you have that untangled come back.
